Well maybe its somewhere here on forum, but I just discovered this few days before. Most of you probably know this, but for those who doesnt knew yet: there is secret main menu music, which plays only first time after installing SC2.

Hope you enjoy it!

Pretty sweet music! Did I hear StarWars @ 1:01?

I always wondered why the music was different the first time you launch after a patch or an install. Or at least every time I log after a patch this song plays, the second launch after the patch it does not.

Music is so epic. Something that's always made me love Blizzard games. Thanks for the post :D

Totally felt the star wars too =P

Quite a well composed piece of music though, very fitting!

Wow this is great! There was a touch of star wars at 1:01 just for about 3 seconds. I do agree that it's pretty epic... it's a nice touch that makes the game more complete and polished.

Is it in you?

I think they used the same composer as from WoW because the epic, blasting chord parts are very similar. At the end I felt as if I was entering Orgrimmar for a second.

It's a regrouping of certain SC1 songs, weaved with original tracks.
As usual, Blizzard's quality standards for music are kept high.

0:00-0:30, SC1 Main Theme
3:30: Tassadar's theme

I never noticed that theme.. odd.

This theme should alternate with the current menu theme.

(Why waste a perfectly well composed track?)

It would make the game unnecessarily more epic.

That's something dustin would say after announcing his plans to increase unit usage by making them shittier.

The piano part is general DuGalle theme, when he kills himself in outro of SC1.
